Quick Escapes from Atlanta
by Dan Thalimer & Carol Thalimer

From the Quick Escapes series.

This guide includes 27 weekend getaways from Atlanta, featuring itineraries with detailed route maps, suggested activities and attractions, and recommendations for restaurants and accommodations. Destinations include Savannah, Asheville, and Nashville.

Twenty-seven quick and convenient minivacations take you away from the hustle and bustle of the city:
Marvel at a 145-foot waterfall found more than 1,000 feet underground; see the world's largest exhibit of freshwater life; and visit the glamorous Beaux Arts-style terminal station in the Chattanooga, Tennessee escape.

Sample fried green tomatoes; experience rugged Georgia farm life circa 1840; and visit the only building in Macon actually struck during a Union attack-the cannonball remains in the home's central hall to this day-in the Macon/Juliette, Georgia escape.

Experience the rich musical history of a city that produced Nat King Cole and "Big Mama" Thornton; walk in the footsteps of Martin Luther King Jr. and other civil rights leaders; and take in a world-class performance at the only American theater invited to fly the flag of England's Royal Shakespeare Company in the Tuskegee to Selma, Alabama escape.
